Shri Raas Granth : Prakaran 3 : Verse 25 – 29
श्री रास ग्रन्थ : प्रकरण ३ : चौपाई २५ – २९
मुखथी सेवा तुंने सी कहुं, जो तुं अंतर आडो टाल ।
अनेक विध सेवा तणी, तुंने उपजसे ततकाल ॥२५॥
Mukhthi seva tune si kahu, jo tu antar aado taal |
Anek vidh seva tani, tune upajse tatkaal ||25||
O Soul! By giving verbal discourse what should I say to you in the context of service? If you will remove the veil of ignorance from your conscience i.e. if you will become free from confusions then immediately the feelings of service will arise in your heart.
पहेले फेरे आपण आवियां, ते तो वाले कह्यं छे विसेक ।
ते तां लाभ लईने जागियां, हवे आपण करुं रे विसेक ॥२६॥
Pahele fere aapan aaviya, te to valo kahyu che visek |
Te tan labh laine jaagiya, have aapan karu re visek ||26||
In this first incarnation or trip (Braj and Raas) we had come in the form of Gopis. Our Beloved Dhani has given its vivid description. At that time we had taken the benefit and had woken up in Paramdhaam for some moments. (Then we came in this Universe) Now we have to take even more benefits in this jagni leela.
पहेले फेरे थयुं आपणने, गौपद वछ संसार ।
एणे पगले चालिए, जो तुं पहेलो फेरो संभार ॥२७॥
Pahele fere thayu aapan-ne, gopad vach sansaar |
Aene pagle chaaliye, jot u pahelo fero sambhaar ||27||
In the first trip while going to Vrindavan from Braj we considered this world as trivial as the water filled footprints made by the calves (Govatspad). O Soul! Recollect this incident. Even now we have to walk on that path.
एटला माटे आ अजवालुं, वालेजीए कीधुं आ वार ।
नरसैयां वचन प्रगट कीधां, कांई व्रज तणा विचार ॥२८॥
Etla mate aa ajvalu, valejiye kidhu aa vaar |
Narsaiya vachan pragat kidha, kain vraj tanaa vichaar ||28||
Hence even this time Sadguru has enlightened that path for us. To make us ponder on the incidents of Vraj, Sadguru has clearly explained us through the words of Devotee Narsinh Mehta also.
कहे इन्द्रावती नरसैयां वचन, जो जोइए करीने चित ।
धणिए जे धन आपियुं, कांई करी आपणने हित ॥२९॥
Kahe Indravati Narsaiya vachan, jo joiye karine chit |
Dhaniye je dhan aapiyu, kain kari aapan-ne hit ||29||
Indravati says O Sundarsath! If we will focus our mind on the words of Narsinh Mehta and listen, then we will realise that Sadguru Dhani has extremely favoured us by giving tartam gyan (divine knowledge).
Shri Raas Granth : Prakaran 4 : Verse 1 – 5
श्री रास ग्रन्थ : प्रकरण ४ : चौपाई १ – ५
प्रेम सेवा वाले प्रगट कीधी, व्रज तणी आ वार ।
वचन विचारीने जो जोईए, कांई नरसैयां तणा निरधार ॥१॥
Prem seva vaale pragat kidhi, Vraj tani aa vaar |
Vachan vichaarine jo joiye, kain Narsaiyaa tanaa nirdhaar ||1||
Our Beloved Dhani has very clearly described the leela of Love and service in this Jagni Brahmand (Awakening Universe). In this context definitely ponder on the words of devotee Narsinh Mehta.
श्री धामतणां साथ सांभलो, हुं तो कहुं छुं लागीने पाय ।
जे रे मनोरथ कीधां आपणे, ते पूरण एणी पेरे थाय ॥२॥
Shri Dhamtanaa sath saambhlo, hu to kahi chu laagine paay |
Je re manorath kidha aapan-ne, te puran eni pere thaay ||2||
O Brahmasrishti of the Eternal Paramdhaam! Listen, I bow down to your feet and say, that the play which we aspired to see in Paramdhaam, all those desires have been fulfilled in this way.
व्रजमां कीधी आपण वातडी, ते तां सघली मांहे सनेह ।
काम करतां अति घणां, पण खिण नव छाड्यो नेह ॥३॥
Vrajma kidha aapan-ne vaatdi, te tan saghli mahe saneh |
Kaam karta ati ghanaa, pan khin nav chaadyo neh ||3||
The sports which we played in Raas Mandal were adorable (filled with love / premmayi), i.e. there was love in everybody’s heart. In spite of being busy in worldly affairs, even for a moment we never failed to remember the affection of Dhani.
विविध पेरे सिणगार जो करतां, मन उलास ज थाय ।
मननां मनोरथ पूरण करतां, रंग भर रैणी विहाय ॥४॥
Vividh pere singaar jo kartaa, man ulaas j thaay |
Mann-na manorath puran karta, rang bhar raini vihaay ||4||
By adorning ourselves in different ways our hearts would get excited. By being with our Beloved Dhani all our wishes would get fulfilled and our nights would pass in supreme bliss (paramanand).
उठतां बेसतां रमतां, वालो चितथी ते अलगो न थाय ।
ज्यारे वन पधारतां, त्यारे खिण वरसा सो थाय ॥५॥
Uthtaa bestaa ramtaa, valo chit-thi te algo na thaay |
Jyaare van padhaartaa, tyaare varsaa so thaay ||5||
All the time Dhani used to be in our minds while getting up, sitting down, playing i.e. we would never lose our focus from Dhani’s form (swaroop). Even one moment would appear like several years when He used to go (with cows and gwalas) in the forest.
